THE ELECTION
OFFICIAL RECOUNT. The following are the official results, as announced by the Returning Officer, after the official recount which took place on Monday and Tuesday of this week: — PARLIAMENT. HOLDINGS, (National) 504 LINKLATER, (Reform) 4428 ROBERTS, (Labour) 2354 Total 7286 Informal 55 LICENSING. CONTINUANCE 3456 PROHIBITION 3312 STATE CONTROL 500
Total 7268 Informal 68 Absentee voters for Manawatu totalled 499. With one or two exceptions on which the eyes of electors are at present focused, the amended electoral figures which are still steadily pouring into the busy office of the Deputy-Chief Electoral Officer, cannot affect the general position (says the Dominion). In view of the uncertainty that seems to exist in some quarters as to the effect of the licensing issue in Ohinemuri, the latest figures §how that that district remains “dry,” there not being the necessary three-fifths majority of “the total votes polled,” which, of course includes the 194 informal votes cast. Following are the latest figures received: — WIELLINGTON EAST.
